Premier league football is now a day out for tourists and ground hoppers.

Football is all about grass roots and having a soul.

You don't choose your football team, it chooses you.

What annoys me even more than the plastic Premiership TV only fans are those that portray to be Barcelona fans with their tops on  

Don't agree with it but at least the plastic Premiership fans are patriotic.

Nothing says patriotism quite like wearing a Man Utd shirt.

I have no interest in the premiership at all, as for the money that's splashed about its obscene. Kingston Mariner said avoid pubs that have sky sports and I have to agree and disagree, as some know on here I run a pub in Newark(Town scarf and Shirt above the bar,annoys the hell out off the gimps who come in) and I don't have sky and the reason is the cost £977 a month and that doesn't include BT sport which is another £390,its calculated on the rateable value of your premises. Had a pub in Newcastle it was £1700 a month there. However some pubs are struggling to keep there heads above water and the only way they can is by competing for the plastics trade and to think that when the euro cups begin footy is on nearly 7 days a week,  hence they pay it because they dare not and sky know this,Robbing Bar stewards

It will get worse when The Championship becomes Premier 2
Already clubs like ours will not be able to compete at Championship level as the players wages there will be out of our reach on gates of 6-7000.

I broadly agree with everything said, but what if we ever made it to that level?

Do you view Bournemouth supporters with the same contempt as top 6 supporters? Not meaning to be antagonistic, genuinely curious.

Woz's post sums it up for me.

Euuugh.They only play each other twice a season already. Soulless corporateball.

As for Man Utd playing Man City in a friendly in Texas. Cretins.


Talksport said average tickets were over $200 each! I wish the Premier league would take it's shite £90m strikers, it's diving, it's rolling around, it's 450k a week players and just sodomist off to China and be done with it so we can claim our game back.

Wigworld slightly different, I'm sure they're aiming the rant at people who have never stepped foot into Manchester let alone Old Trafford.. I bet half the 'man utd' fans in Grimsby couldn't even point to Manchester on a map!
